I've been following this a lot through Al Jazerra, their headline reads "Mubarak MAY step down." One thing is certain, the protests are not subsiding at all -- rather they keep getting bigger and bigger. In a few days he'll have no choice either way. The problem now is that if he does step down a new gov't must be established within 60 days... 60 days! That's not much time to get a solid government formed.
